The functional organization of the vestigial locus in Drosophila melanogaster.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 Mar 1990

Abstract excerpt

Vestigial mutants are associated with imaginal disc cell death which results in the deletion of adult wing and haltere structures. The vestigial locus has previously been cloned, and mutational lesions associated with a number of vg alleles were mapped within a 19 kb DNA region defined as essenti...
